Why it might work
  • Light over deepMulham brings green and aromatic; Violaceous brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
  • Notes in commonBoth list sandalwood, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
  • A shared threadAromatic, fresh spicy, woody and green run through both.
  • Opposite seasonsVoters put Violaceous in fall and Mulham in spring and summer. Together they may suit the months in between.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Violaceous is long lasting and moderate, Mulham long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
